Just curious if the cheapest family in history gave more than $20 to the victims of Katrina.

4. "substantial amount"
I heard on the media last week that after the chimp's first photo-op, that he and his wife wrote a personal check for a "substantial amount" to the Red Cross.
Interesting that the most secretive administration in US history would manage to get that bit out.

6. Don't expect the Boy King to offer his ranch
that would be an act of generosity way out of character.
